Horizon Middle School Presents Suessical Jr.


       I took the kids to see Suessical Jr. at Horizon Middle School last night and we all loved it! Seussical Jr. is based on the works of Dr. Seuss and focuses mostly on Horton Hears a Who!. My kids are STILL singing the songs from it and running up and talking to me about their favorite parts! This is a very talented group of kids and they played their parts perfectly! I absolutely suggest you take your family to see it tonight at 7:30pm or tomorrow at 2:00pm ...
